Cool, easy pieces for summer

MANILA, Philippines - Whether you want to go somewhere cold or you want to chill on the beach, Pierre Cardin gives you a list of cool, easy shirts to pack for your trip. 

Short-sleeved button-downs as well as round neck and collared shirts prove to be effortless sunup to sundown essentials.

First on the list is a navy and red checkered short-sleeved button-down with contrast roll-up sleeves. It’s perfect for the man’s man looking for some fun, as well as a bit of color play. Pair it with khaki chinos for balance. Channel Marlon Brando in a short-sleeved denim button-down with contrast checkered roll-up sleeves. Make it current with crisp white twill pants.

Feeling sexy? Be a summer vision of Christian Grey in,

 well, a gray checkered button-down with double pockets matched with bluish gray cotton stretch pants. For the shirt kind of guy, Pierre Cardin offers two versions of the season’s perennial styles: prints and color blocking. The striped white shirt makes it to the list because of its uncomplicated style; wear it on its own or under a button-down in a contrasting shade. The ensblack and tan color-blocked polo T-shirt with mandarin collar worn with blue chinos is a great look for golf or chill-out sessions at the yacht club.
